Description

United tates Patent AN'I'HELit-HNTIC PIPERAZINES Norton Harfenist, Yonkers, and Ernest G. Magnien, Flushing, N. Y., nssignors to Burroughs Wellcome & Co. (U. S. A.) ind, Tuckahoe, N. Y., a corporation of New York No Drawing. Application June 11, 1956 Serial No. 590,367
4 Claims. (Cl. 260-268) The subject of the present invention relates to a family of diquaternary salts derived from 2,5-dimethylpiperazine. The general formula is:
wherein X- is the anion of a. nontoxic acid and R is a straight chain alkyl radical having l0l2 carbon atoms inclusive.
These compounds have exceptional activity against intestinal worms and particularly against pinworms. Human pinworm infestations are extremely diiiicult to combat and are widespread even among highly civilized populations. The drug of choice at present is piperazine, which is inexpensive and virtually nontoxic. its use has only one major disadvantage. The treatment extends over a long period of time, days to 3 weeks, and thus involves a number of inconveniences especially as the simultaneous treatment of an entire family is generally advisable to prevent reinfection.
Such prolonged treatment with piperazine is believed to be necessary because pinworms inhabit the lower part of the intestinal tract and the drug, which is extensively absorbed, does not arrive at the site of its action in a high concentration. Against Ascarz's litmbricoides, which dwells in the duodenum, piperazine is completely effective when given over a three-day period and removes large numbers of worms in even one dose.
Since quaternary ammonium salts of large size are not readily absorbed from the gut, it was hoped that piperazine quaternary salts might be more eitective. To some extent this is true, and a family of piperazine monoquaternary salts forms the subject of a copending application. Along with the monoquaternary salts, a variety of diquaternary salts were prepared not only from piperazine butalso from several C-substituted piperazines, although these compounds as the simple bases are uniformly less efiective for this purpose than is piperazine.
2,832,784 Patented Apr. 29, 1958 ice Of the C-substituted pipera'zines examined, thereadily available 2,5-dimethylpiperazine offered derivatives of the greatest interest. In the table are shown the potencies and toxicities of some of these in comparison with those of the corresponding piperazine derivatives. Quaternary salts of both series having values for R higher or lower than those shown have only minor interest. The toxicities (LD-SO) and activities were both determined on mice, the latter on mice infested with the pinworm Syphacia obvelata which is closely related to the human pinworm, and has been shown to be a reliable guide in these investigations (cf. Kam-Fai Chan, Am. J. Hyg. 56, 22 (1952); Paul E. Thompson and J. S. Reinertson, Exper. Parasit. 1, 384 (1952); H. W. Brown, K-F Chan and B. D. Ferrell, Exper. Parasit. 3, 45 (1954)). The dose is that given on each of two successive days and the percent of worms removed is based on the wormburden of treated mice compared to that of control mice infected at the same time and in the same fashion- It will be seen that in each series there is a peaking of the activity at some middle value of R (a very common phenomenon in biological work) and that most surprisingly the optimum value for R is higher in the 2,5-dimethylpiperazine series (R=l2) than in the common piperazine series (R=1012) despite the fact that the same figure for R gives a higher molecular weight in the former case. At the same time the toxicity to the host of the dimethylpiperazine series is appreciably less (LD-SO values higher) than in the normal series-giving a larger safety factor highly desirable in general and especially when dealing with an ailment of a nonlethal though annoying nature.
The nature of the anion, X, is of only subsidiary importance, the valuable properties residing in the cation. Most frequently the iodides were first prepared and when these were of interest, the chlorides or other salts were formed. Suitable salts are (further) methosulfates, phosphates, lactates, acetates, citrates, toluene sulfonates, etc. The most convenient route is to react 2,5-ditnethylpiperazine with two equivalents of RX (X being iodide, bromide or toluene sulfonate) to give an N,N-diR-2,5- dimethylpiperazine. This is then reacted with excess methyl iodide to give a dimethiodide or with methyltoluenesulfonate to give a dimethyl tosylate, or with methyl sulfate to give a dimethosulfate. The iodide can be converted to the chloride by treatment with silver chloride or by warming with methanolic hydrogen chloride. Other salts can be prepared from those just mentioned by conventional methods.
An alternative preparation is by treating 2,5-dimethylpiperazines with formalin and formic acid (Clarke- Eschweiler procedure) to give 1,2,4,5,-tetramethylpiperazine which is then quaternized with the higher halide, usually the bromide. In general, this is less convenient since the reaction time for the quaternization step becomes inconveniently long.

Usually the worms are expelled while helpless, but if any are not, they are able to continue their life normally after treatment with piperazine.
